The heart may freeze or it can burn
The pain will ease if I can learn
There is no future
There is no past
I live this moment as my last
There's only us
There's only this
Forget regret
Or life is yours to miss
No other road
No other way
No day but today
Lyrics from Another Day, RENT
Positive thinking. We can't change the past, we can't change how we feel about the past. We can use the past for positive outcomes. How often do we burden ourselves with negative thoughts? They weigh us down. We can't change the feelings. We can't change the past. We can change the thoughts. Turn those negative thoughts into positive ones. We can use those rough times for good.
Which is the better statement?
Childen have a better chance at life than we did.
OR
We all have a better chance at life now.
It took Edison over 1000 tried to make the light bulb. How many tries have we honestly given ourselves?
The pain will ease if I can learn
There is no future
There is no past
I live this moment as my last
There's only us
There's only this
Forget regret
Or life is yours to miss
No other road
No other way
No day but today

I like the saying "the past is history, the future is a mystery, today is a gift. That is why it is called the present'. That has always resonated with me.

This is a good reminder for us all! Regrets can be so punishing and, really, they're worthless. Thanks for sharing this.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
